Tasty Side Dishes: Crispy Panko Breaded Onion Rings

Pin It


Onion rings make a perfect companion to go with those savory game day wings!  You simply can't go wrong with the good ol' onion ring.  They're great along side burgers and hot dogs too.  Crispy and crunchy, these onion rings are coated with seasoned flour, then covered in panko bread crumbs, then deliciously fried.



Ingredients:


  • 1 large onion
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup milk


Steps:

Slice the onion into 1/2 inch slices.

Separate the rings in each slice.

In a small bowl, mix the egg and the milk together.

In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and cajun seasoning.  Make sure to mix well.



Dip each onion ring into the egg-wash.

Then dip into the flour, making sure to completely cover.

Set each floured ring onto a platter until all of the rings are covered in flour.



Pour your bread crumbs into a medium-sized bowl.

Dip each floured ring into the egg-wash again.

After dipping into the egg, completely cover the ring with the panko bread crumbs.

Place on a platter, and set aside.


In a deep fryer, heat oil to 375 degrees F.

When oil is hot, fry the onion rings for 3 minutes or until golden brown.

Allow the onion rings to cool, and eat up!

Its so easy to make these tasty onion rings at home.  They are so good too!


Enjoy!
